It's mostly about the resources id have to spend to level up him and his traces and whatnot when there are a boat load of characters and reruns coming soon that I know I want to build.

Honkai: Star Rail 2.0 |OT| Tick-Tock! Come Dream With Us!

Right now we're pretty much waiting on the beta to see who Jade is good with. The leaked kit can go either way. She may be good paired with Topaz in an MoC-type environment, but she may be so PF-oriented that she needs an AOE partner instead. She's definitely designed to get more out of an AOE partner than a single-target one.
He curses those who hate him the most. He blessed my Acheron pull to give me a guarantee for Aventurine so the least I could do is finish building him.
With the ZZZ chat I gotta admit it's definitely the least appealing of the 3 to me. I do like a few character designs, but I'll wait until it's out and see what I think. In all honesty though it may be too much gacha, and even just games in general. I'm still active on Dokkan, Genshin is pulling me back in since Fontaine, HSR has me hooked. Then for non gacha I'm gonna be active on FFXIV again come summer, Helldivers is the irl friend group game in rotation and I'm chipping away at the latest Yakuza. Juggling it all is already a challenge without adding ZZZ.
Back on the HSR topic though, is it just me or do we get a kinda low amount of fuel? I was levelling my latest pull on Genshin and noticed I have a pretty decent amount of resin sitting around. It might just be that I'm more active in this game but any new fuel is gone the second it arrives. It's only really the Hoyo games where I've found this to be an issue too. Any other gachas I've played I typically have hundreds of energy refills banked, far more than I'd ever need

It's so much easier to burn stamina/fuel in this game imo. Always running low.
Guess it isn't just me then. Yeah any fuel I get is immediately fed to the relic gods. Usually without a single one worth keeping lol. Won't stop me going back for more though
Personally Topaz because I like Numby. If you're pulling just one copy and no LC though I'd guess the smarter choice is Robin. Topaz at E0 and no cone isn't really all that great
While you obviously don't HAVE to, E1S1 Topaz nearly feels like a requirement to me. If you get her there, shes amazing for FUA teams. But before then, she's honestly kinda meh, even though she's one of my favorite designs.
Robin at E0S0 would still be a great option regardless if you go for E's or sig LC.
Haven't had a chance to play it, but I think ZZZ will be huge in terms of popularity. It has a very appealing urban art style, gameplay genre and soundtrack.
It's going to be very popular in the Summer, and will take a lot of attention from HSR for awhile IMO.
Yeah lets not pull punches for Topaz to be Queen of FUAs she needs E1S1 but she will be ever green for a long time in that style.
Im hyped for it. I like roguelikes and I liked Honkai Impact quite a bit. This looks kinda like its successor in some ways.
Yup, all in for it. The art style is what gripped me and it being also the in line with 3rd's genre managed to solidify it a bit more. On the other hand, I'm enjoying some of the doomposts it's getting. But then again, those fuckers doomposts about everything, so nothing special.
At this point, no. So far, I only like the pink girl and the cyborg guy designs. Also, I just can't see myself playing 3 Mihoyo games. HSR is great for daily play and I usually play Genshin weekly outside of patch releases and I feel ZZZ is definitely going to require more time than HSR. The only "big" gacha game I'm willing to add to Genshin/HSR is Arknights Endfield if it's actually good.
I still want to have enough time for JRPGs/Souls games etc.
But I do like that ZZZ main characters are not self-inserts like the Traveler/Trailblazer.
Topaz. You can use Ruan Mei instead of Robin. She also has my favorite design in the game with Fu Xuan.

Should be like that for all characters.
Stupid auto aim for techniques will target a vase over an opponent and you lose points.
I'll probably go Robin if E0 Topaz is meh.
Boothill seems niche.
I'll probably wait and see for ZZZ if it's like HSR where you can do the daily grind in 20 or so minutes I'll play it, if it's another time consuming game like Genshin I won't.
Also depends on how WuWa turns out. Too many gacha to play and I'd to keep it at 3 at most.

If I recall from CBT2, auto battle isn't a thing, so it'll take longer than HSR to grind stuff. Not as long as Genshin though since it's not open world and it doesn't have unnecessary cooldowns on bosses.
Nope, Only other Gacha I would play is Persona 5 Phantom X if it ever gets released in the West.
Got so many notifications from here I legit thought I was getting cancelled over some (no doubt objectively correct) comment lmao.
Cheers for y'alls thoughts, seems like not everyone is keen on ZZZ, but most are. Honestly I'm not sure why I ain't feeling it, the game oozes quality and style, ost seems banging, I just don't have that itch for it for whatever reason. Maybe once it actually lands on PSN I'll just go "ehh at least I'll try" and get sucked into another gacha spiral, but we'll see.
Also TIL there's Persona 5 Gacha, and holy shit it looks great, I'd love a PS5 port with EN subs.

It plays great too. You can tell they were really inspired by HSR, which is funny when you think about it.
Excited for the new trailer tomorrow. Never really care about the livestreams themselves but always like the teasers ahead of the patch.
It's time for the team to deliver on all this mystery and intrigue now. Hope they can pull it off.
It's funny because I remember loving the music during that quest then I just totally forgot about it. lol

It's all about the codes for me. I do want to see what 4* are on the banners and hope to not see Xueyi so I'm not tempted to get that final eidolon.

I'll probably give ZZZ a try, but don't expect I'll stick with it. And between ZZZ and Wuthering Waves, I'd say I'm more interested in Wuthering Waves.
The Genshin action grind burns me out, and I don't see why ZZZ would be any different. And if anything it might be worse, since my understanding is that you basically have to run action SU multiple times every day?
Auto-battle is why I've been able to stick with HSR for so long, and why it's the gacha for me.

I'm in the ZZZ ps5 beta and I find it a lot of fun to play but the number of F bombs in the first ten minutes of the game was kinda jarring. Not sure if I'll stick with it but it's better than I would have thought before playing it. Would actually be f2p (or maybe just welkin bp equivalent) if I did though cause I can't afford to whale every mihoyo game
All I want to know is what they are planning on doing with the Annihilation Gang, everything else I'm fine with being surprised by
And a good 50% of the reason I never stick with Genshin is because not being able to auto dailies in a gacha is actual suffering. Only one I can kinda sorta stomache is FGO and that's still turn based/has stuff like Bluestacks

They've actually been doing these with other groups of characters too but yeah would be nice to have them in English too

They could at least put multiple language subtitles, they do that with all the other japanese trailers
I might try ZZZ but I don't think I have the endurance to keep up with 3 gachas. I tried with that Tower of Fantasy and well......it had a really good soundtrack. I'm sure ZZZ will be of better quality but even then, my interest is not particularly high. GI and HSR already eat enough time away from regular games.
The fact that we're nearing the end of the leaked characters from a while back worries me. I don't really know what to expect beyond that which is exciting...but also worrying. It makes it all the more difficult to know who to pull for.
At least we'll get the 2.5 leaks when Firefly releases. As much as I want her, if Jiaoqui is in 2.4 (which is likely) I might have to hold back. I'll see what my stellar jade situation looks like at the time, I guess.

Since 2.3 is the Penacony epilogue, I fully expect 2.4 to either be a continuance (i.e. 5-star Sampo on Belobog) or the first part of the Yaoqing.
Might still be possible to Sunday to show up in a Penacony Continuance towards the end of 2.x, like Huohuo.
...If he doesn't get Cocolia'd in 2.2.
Well I finished the Penacony story. Even after getting "spoiled" by the Firefly banner announcement midway through, was not expecting her to literally be in the armor. I figured she was alive but thought there'd be some Clara/Svarog like thing going on.
The amount of focus Aventurine got was also pretty cool; thought it'd be to shift the main antagonist role to Sunday but what they did was probably better. I don't normally like "always calculating 10 moves ahead and sees every 'failure' coming" characters but I think they handled him well, especially since his "wins" typically came at a pretty heavy cost to himself.
